Thanks for the update . . .

hermit, thanks for the update. Now that we won't have Trent to kick around anymore, it might be interesting to look at the many and varied ways folks reacted to this story.

I'm particularly amused by James Carville's forgiveness of Senator Lott. Now, I know Carville is an important talking head and all (and, my goodness, just look at the size of that melon, wouldja?) but, who, exactly, is entitled to 'forgive' a public figure who sticks his foot in his mouth?

Should I be sending my words of consolation to the Senator? Or how about the melanin-enhanced residents of the great state of South Carolina, who have endured the representation of Sen. Thurmond for 48 years? Do they get to 'forgive' Trent Lott?
